Happy August! I hope that everyone had a restful summer! I can't believe that summer is almost over, but I am looking forward to getting back to school and seeing everyone!

I had a great summer! I was at summer school at Oak Terrace for the first 5 weeks. I spent a lot of time up in Wisconsin with my family; I was so thrilled to be able to spend a ton of time with my nephews, Will and Luke. I also spent a lot of time exploring my backyard, Chicago! I saw a US gymnastics meet which was pretty cool (now I am super excited for the olympics next year!) I also trained and ran my first half marathon.... something I never thought I would ever do!

Here are some pictures from my summer:

I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things in about a week and a half :) I am excited to hear about everyone's summer activities. I would love to see photos if you want to bring some in!
